Can someone explain why Abbas putting in an application for Palestine to be a signature on 15 International treaty and/or organizations is disruptive to current peace negotiations. I would think their agreement to abide under international norms would be positive. Below are a list of the 15... 1. The Four Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949 and the First Additional Protocol 2. The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations 3. The Vienna Convention on Consular Relations 4. The Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Involvement of Children in armed conflict 5. The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women 6. The Hague Convention (IV) respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land and its annex: Regulations Concerning the Laws and Customs of War on Land 7. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 8. The Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties 9. The International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination 10. The Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment 11. The United Nations Convention against Corruption 12. The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide 13. The International Convention on the Suppression and Punishment of the Crime of Apartheid 14.
